We’re extremely excited to announce today the launch of PS4 Attitude, the next generation of news, reviews and articles for PS4 and PS Vita. It’s an exciting new chapter for the team here at Attitude Towers, and we’re so happy to see it finally ‘in the wild’.

Many studios are now implementing “penalties” for leaving a game early, the latest being Naughty Dog who are dishing out hefty 40,000 fines for players who mysteriously vanish from the fray.

Replying to comments over on the official Naughty Dog forums from players who deem this penalty to be “unfair” and “excessive”, Naughty Dog’s Arne Meyer believes the studio are following the correct path in order to keep the game honest for everyone.

Not prepared to wait on previously attached screenwriter Kyle Ward and his other game-to-screen adaptations, LatinoReview have reported that the producers of the upcoming Uncharted movie are now circling new writers.

Favourites for the gig are Thomas Dean Donnelly and Joshua Oppenheimer who are in talks to pen the first of what will surely be many Drake adventures on the big screen.

Uncharted 2: Among Thieves picks up the story of PS3 poster-boy, Nathan ‘Nate’ Drake, roughly two years after the events of Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune. Similar to the previous story, this new adventure revolves around an unsolved historical mystery.

Instead of searching for the gold of El Dorado, this time Nate’s travels take him along the path of Marco Polo’s doomed voyage home from China in 1292. You see, Polo departed with 14 ships and over 600 passengers and crew, but when he arrived at his destination a year and a half later only one ship remained and only 18 of the passengers had survived.

Although Marco Polo described almost every other aspect of his journeys in minute detail he never revealed what happened to the ships that were lost, and it is this fact that drives Drake and his cohorts forward towards the treasure, and the truth.
